Just A.M.U.S.E.D

My day started as it usually does. Waking up in the morning at a time when eye opens. Lazily going down the stairs and asking the maid to make some tea. No change.

Except, my dad had left home early. And my maid and grandmom were talking about the sad demise of the Vice Principal of my college. ;'(

He was a great man. A man of virtues. He stuck to his words and when he walked through the college, there were ripples of fear because of his strict disciplinary practices.

But as I said, that did not affect my schedule.

The pull of death amazes me. One day you hear stories about a person and the next day you hear the news of his death.

It indeed is true, when the time comes when you have to leave the world, you will do so. You won't be allowed many goodbyes. Or maybe you wouldn't be lucky enough to even say a single Goodbye.

Today, when I think about what must be going on at his place, sadness engulfs me. A whole world of well-being uprooted.

And not just this one household, but dunno how many other. How many others were left without a future by death itself.

The uncertainty of living amuses me.
